Capturing the nation in conversation to build a unique picture of our lives today - as we adjust to the 'new normal' and preserve it for future generations. Presented by Fi Glover.

Fi Glover presents friends, relatives and strangers in conversation as we learn to adjust to the 'new normal'.

In this week's programme - strangers separated from partners during lockdown and beyond, talk about making life-changing decisions as a result of the experience; strangers who came together during lockdown through a charitable book borrowing scheme set up by one of them outside her house; head teachers giving a revealing insight into their lives now; and two men who had never met reflect on a shared experience which is as traumatic as it gets - the murder of a daughter and the so-called honour killing of a brother.
